I have just harvested a very good crop of peas,Kelvedon Wonder. after uprooting the stems is it possible to grow another crop in the same place as all my support nets are set out in that area.
Advice please

Peas Late Crop

Hi brenjon, I've just done exactly that this weekend, and planted a second crop of hurst greenshaft where the first was. It's a legume bed for this year - so I can get two crops out of it. Only problem with late peas might be mildew, but I'm willing to take the chance 
I was going to ask abour peas...
having had a few pods to harvest, the plants now seem to be going yellow and dying. none of them grew very big either...
I wasn't sure if this was normal and that they just had a short "life" or if I'd done something wrong, like not watering them. I expect you need to know what variety hey are so I shall have to go into the garage to fnd the packet...
Am I correct in thinking, from reading the other posts, that it's not too late to sow more peas in the same place?

Mildew can be a serious problem with late crop peas and it will destroy the whole crop quite rapidly if it gets a hold. A useful variety is 'Ambassador', widely available, which has resistance to mildew and grows well into late summer.

Kelvedon Wonder were the ones Iplanted. Following your suggestions, I might try a second lot.As you say, what's the worst that can happen?? and I don't think I can possibly sqeeze in any more lettuce.... I anticipate a large glut later in the year!
